In pursuit of a fun summer color, I stumbled upon this beauty. OPI Cajun Shrimp is the perfect summer color for your fingers and toes. Did I mention this coral looks stunning with a tan? Per usual, the formulation was on point. I will be wearing this one into fall to go with my chunky knits and jeans! Honestly this color could go year round so don’t hesitate to pick it up in a cooler month.

I’m living for this creamy pink polish right now. I’ve been trying to get out of my habit of doing dark purples and navy blues every single time I paint my nails. I’ve been very much into pastels for the summer, and this color caught my eye right away. There’s something about pink on the nails that seems so sweet to me!

The formulation is fantastic, as are all OPI polishes, and it only took two coats to get to the opacity I wanted. If you’re in the market for a creamy pink, Suzi Shops & Island Hops is perfect.

Manicure SUNday goes out to OPI’s Spare me a french quarter? from their New Orleans collection. Being from NOLA, I have to say some of the names were a little too much for me… But the colors in this collection are nothing short of amazing.

Spare me a french quarter? is a creamy raspberry hue. The formulation was excellent and it only took two coats to get the opacity I wanted. This color is bringing me into the Spring season, which I am super pumped for.

Have y’all tried any of the polishes from this collection? What did you think?

I haven’t done a Mani Monday in a while, so I figured why not now! If you know me, you know how much I love OPI’s Lincoln Park After Dark. It’s my all time favorite polish. I love how it’s a dark plum but can look black in certain light. Dark nails are in no matter what season, according to me. Do yourself a favor and buy a bottle of this, you’ll looooove it. Trust me.

This week’s mani monday is dedicated to this gorgeous taupe color from OPI dubbed Berlin There Done That. It’s such a gorgeous neutral that goes with anything. I think there is some sort of a stigma to colors like these, but I say go for it! Application was easy and the formulation was perfect (no different from any other OPI polish). This would be so perfect in the fall or winter even with a chunky sweater and some arm candy. It is now one of my go-to neutal shades. Thanks OPI!
